A: 4.15 x 10^8 km

B: 5.8 x 10^9 km

C: 54.21 x 10^6 km

D: 1.84 x 10^7 km


Respuesta :

For this case the first thing we must know is the following conversion of units:
 1 AU = 1.50 * 10 ^ 8 Km
 Applying the conversion of units we have:
 (2,767) * (1.50 * 10 ^ 8) = 415050000
 Rewriting we have:
 4.15 * 10 ^ 8 Km
 Answer:
 
A: 4.15 x 10 ^ 8 km
